The Chinese New Year will start on 28th January this year. What the Chinese do as a tradition is to go to visit their friends and relatives on the very first day of the new year to send their greetings, which is called “Bai Nian” or “Bai Da Nian”, meaning “to pay new year calls”. This is considered as the most important new year routine.

Besides “Happy New Year” as the top greetings that suit all occasions, Cultural Perspectives has prepared some more top greetings that will help you through this very important Chinese tradition.
